NASA is getting ready to launch its massive, fully expendable rocket for the first crewed flight to the Moon since Apollo. The agency’s new era of spaceflight comes with a few parts from its past, specifically three rocket engines that have previously flown on space shuttle missions.

Back in 2024, Lego delivered an excellent (and huge) Icons model of the NASA Artemis Space Launch System.
